Quote ="The Devil's Advocate"=#FF0000Hull FC should be up there with the big boys, their ground is the best in the game, their fan base is superb, however, once again, it looks like another season is ebbing away.
As an outsider looking in, there appears to be a fundamental problem with the BOD, it’s they who employ the Coach & players.
Some of their recruitment baffles me. Why go for a player that’s near the end of a glittering career, done it all, with the injuries finally catching up with him, when I’m sure they could have picked up a class Scrum Half from either SL or the NRL for similar money?
They should be looking at the Wigan model, superb local production line, with class quota players.
It must be very frustrating watching a club with so much potential, failing so often.
But, there is a silver lining, at least they don’t have the tribulations of being a Wakey fan.'"
They were poor last year so its no surprise that they are also poor this year. Renting a football stadium and being based in a city (and so having a big catchment area to attract fans from) doesnt automatically mean they are a big club
